Very cute. I think the premise is hilarious. There were a few times where I did not transform into the thing I was directly next to though. Great Job overall.

LOL THIS GAME!

Cute arts, sounds and music was good. However, I have trouble morphing into objects cos they're sometimes too close to each other, and accidentally morph into the other object instead. Maybe you could spread the items out a lil bit more. :)

South Park anyone. Funny game, some minor bug in the shape shifting but mainly a nice execution of the game.

A fun quick game, I loved the artsyle! I also liked how you could throw an item if it was too close to another, so well thought out there. Nice!

You can throw away items by tapping space bar as you only morph into the item on top of others in front of you, maybe this feature isn't clear enough :p

Cool game! I liked the instantaneous hamster-zapping. The fatalistic flair was fun to play.

Sometimes, I found it a bit hard to line the hamster up with the specific object I was trying to imitate, and that was a bit frustrating. Thankfully, the quick nature of the game allowed me to get back and try it again. This would probably make a nice ad-supported mobile game.

Fun little game. Sometimes it felt like I didn't shapeshift into the closest object, which got me killed a few times, but I enjoyed it none the less.

Great graphics!

Lemmiwinks the game? Good job on graphics and sound. Did also have problems transforming when even when I was standing upon an object, but overall ok gameplay.

Lemmiwinks! kkkk Great artwork and audio! Concept is really nice too, it was really funny xp Too bad the unicorn never helped me... kkk. Though as some people already pointed out, I too had some problems with shapeshifting to the closest object.. But still great entry!
